regarding decstation article you edited

I did what you asked. I have a login (Drrr9999) and I put something in talk on that page. Now what? I would like to tell the true story here of how the machine came to be. Thanks. Is there another way to do it? Can I create my own page telling the story of the decstation 3100?

-Badams2619---uhhhh hey so wikipedia told me that you deleted my music taste page so like did i do something like if i did i'm so sorry but like what happened?

Drrr9999-Please do not add commentary on the article. And also for Badams2619, please provide a reliable source. Regards, ----Rdp060707|talk 02:12, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

==============================================

To User:Rdp060707: From Drrr9999:

So are you saying you want me to record the history of how the decstation 3100 was created but you want no commentary, just facts??? I was not clear what you disliked originally and what wikipedia wants. I can tell the story from my point of view as SW Architect and primary SW implementer. Should I not add commentary of any sort or should I alert a comment where I might use commentary to clarify what was going on at the time to the best of my ability? I was 30 years ago and I am doing it from memory. I took no IP with me when I left DEC.

Source on Eskimo Joe Info

G'day Rdp! I posted the info on the Eskimo Joe page and got your message. I would have posted sources, but I've always found it confusing on how to add sources. I was wondering if supplying you the sources here would help so it can be posted with the correct information behind it?

I don't know much about Wikipedia, especially editing it, but it has a lot of misinformation. One thing I do know about is the origin of Sour Diesel. Yes, Jeff Hobbs credited the strain's development to his friend Robert Peace, but that's not it's origin. If I removed anything it's because it was wrong. I spent a lot of time listening to hours of talk shows of the people involved to make sure the true origin story was factually correct, and checking articles and editing it over a few days as new things came to light. Yours version is not an origin story. It's just a incorrect claim someone made in print. I didn't save my version. I have no backup. I won't change yours again, but it's wrong. Do whatever you think is right, but you shouldn't publish false claims.

2603:8081:9940:f:5506:158b:d4cb:518f, please explain your content removal in the edit summary next time. I did not heard of that while I reverted your edit. ----Rdp060707|talk 01:31, 28 April 2021 (UTC)

Okay, I don't really know what I'm doing, or even if this is where I write this. I'm trying to learn as I go. I'll try to find the "Edit Summery". I give up. I'm no editor. I can't figure out all this rigmarole. I'm leaving it to you, but as an origin story? This is a bit of an abomination to put it mildly.

Hi, this in regards to an addition I made to the "References in pop culture" Section of the "White Rabbit (song)" page. You didn't like that I didn't have a "source". I'm not really sure what that means. My source was me watching the episode and hearing the song. Is "source" the same as "citation"? Is citation necessary if I include all pertinent information in the edit? Cause I did. Where is the citation of other people's posts? I don't see citation on the page. Is that the "references" section? Where do I put citation? Here is a citation. I'm putting my edit back in with the citation. Please don't take it down. “Hunted.” Supernatural, created by Eric Kripke, season 2, episode 10, Kripke Enterprise, Wonderland Sound and Vision, Warner Bros. Television, 2007.

Tony Anthony

Sorry Rdp060707 I am new to this. The original info on this Tony Anthony page lacked context and was a little inaccurate. Probably, I am the only person in the world who actually cares about this, except maybe Tony. This whole series of events cost me a lot of personal capital and reputation. Avanti / Tony was a worldwide Christian ministry. The work was connected to other major charities and ministries and had been working with all the major denominations. He was a well respected and well-connected evangelist. Geoff Elliot, a personal friend, promised to bankroll the Avanti - IOM week-long event. Geoff was well connected and influential on the island and had gathered a very strong group of very interested churches and political leaders to support the visit. I was an unimportant youth worker. When I made my decision to pull back, in direct consequence of the total lack of transparency from Tony, I was up against a fearsome backlash. The only person, aside from Geoff, who knew the cost to me, was a man called Ian who was also employed by the church. Sadly, Ian died of prostate cancer a few years ago. I am trying to give this sad story some depth and context, and a little more accuracy. For example, Mike didn't initiate the investigation, I did. Mike, who I also knew quite well (but not a friend) was the first person to take my doubts seriously.

I will try and alter my text and add a citation

Crvnz- This appears to be a Catch22. You can’t be mentioned on Wikipedia unless you are already on Wikipedia. I removed all the external links because Wikipedia said they weren’t verifiable.

I have no citation for the post I made. Only the expressed opinions of people that know of her as a streamer and of her notoriety on Twitter. There, a lot of people seem to comment that she is what I posted. While it may be perceived as my opinion, it is rather in fact, the opinions expressed by her followers and that was my impression based on her posts on twitter by others. A mere impression. I am no journalist, but if I was to cite a source, then let it be her twitter page and the people that comment on her tweets in a positive and constructive manner. While she may have critics, she actually faces far more challenges as most because of her medical condition because it creates adversity in her life in the form of initial unemployment, making do by any means to support a parent, and her eventual ascension as a popular streamer because she is well admired for her courage in streaming with Tourette's. So, that is what I got out of the numerous posts of her friends, followers, and supporters in that industry. An impression. Despite adversity, she made a success of herself by just being herself. And her numerous fans appreciate that. I am by no means an actual fan. I probably saw a short video she did for a charity or some documentary, but I probably saw only 1 stream in part total. I don't have a twitch account, so I have no stake in her future enterprise. I only posted the sentence because her profile seemed lacking in some depth and a preponderance on the negative aspects of her career, rather than highlighting the positive in equal measure. If her article needed anything at all, then it was the fact that it was too negative and did not fulfill the journalistic integrity of a proper Biography. You have to post the good with the bad. And in her case, she has a disproportionate amount of negative in the article where it is actually the opposite. In matters pertaining to her private life, it should be noted that the stalking history made her article seem like she was living unhappy. When it is quite the opposite. If one is to cite the stalking, then at least add detail of the stalker or leave that information out. Otherwise, her article is near the border of libel and not factual. Cite the stalker name, or leave the story out of it. Because unless he got charged, and was convicted by jury, it would seem unfair on her character to post the story if there was no resolution in that matter. It is an open ended story. One day, that might change, but for now, I felt one sentence would balance the article. However, this reply probably is a more fitting rebuttal to that story. As with all biographies, I suggest asking her if she wanted it posted. Because it is technically a private matter. And while maybe England may or may not know properly, how to protect its citizens of such crimes, perhaps that article creates the presumption that England is not a safe place for women, but is for predatory men. I think that is a matter of debate. But I would have asked her first before posting that story. It is only out of courtesy of course that it be so. Journalists have integrity after all.

HI - some of the soci and cultural content on Cajal is incorrect and incomplete and doesn't capture the scope of what is really out there. I was trying to add a more accurate overview. I don't think everything I added was incorrect? The link you all have for the NIH exhibit is a really poor link and not very informative - there are better links and that section needs help. Same thing with the first entry on the asteroid, more information is needed. It doesn't make sense that you would provide some links for some Cajal conferences, and not others? It also seems incorrect to remove the Cajal Club. There is more historically relevant stuff about culture and Cajal that is not listed, at all and should be - especially for people who want to travel to Spain. I was just getting started. Some of what is incomplete. The NIH exhibit is ongoing - it isn't over. Anyway, I am new here, and I thought what I contributed was helpful. Dee Dee Turner
